SLB700A/06VA Active Strain Transducer: A Cost-effective Sensor with Integrated Electronics for Extremely High Forces

The SLB700A/06VA is a strain transducer with integrated electronics, which can easily be attached to structures with screws. If force is applied to the structure, the SLB700A/06VA reliably measures the resulting strain. Since the strain is often proportional to the force, the strain sensor can be used to measure the applied force, provided a corresponding calibration has been made. This principle is also called ‘measurement in the force shunt’.

The SLB700A/06VA active strain transducer is simply as robust as the passive version, that is, the SLB700A. However, the active SLB700A/06VA is more cost-effective, owing to its integrated measuring amplifier. The advantage of this attractively priced sensor is that it enables even extremely large forces to be measured in a reliable manner. The machine dynamics remain unaffected.

The teach-in procedure for the electronics utilized in the SLB700A/06VA is very simple. It only requires a measurement to be taken at the maximum force and another measurement at zero force. The output signal is scaled between these two points; irrespective of the strain level, the maximum possible signal will be transmitted to the next level in the measurement chain (refer to the explanation provided below).

The sensor materials withstand most of the oils used in applications involving presses and are rustproof.

Practical

  • Easy mounting using four M6 screws
  • Oil-resistant and a highly flexible cable, suitable for drag chains
  • Compatible with the version without an amplifier; the two versions are interchangeable since they have identical dimensions and hole patterns

Proven for years in production environments: Easy retrofitting of machines is possible due to the full compatibility of active and passive strain sensors.

Cost-effective

  • A cost-effective solution that provides an alternative to force sensors, particularly in cases of involvement of large process forces
  • The machine dynamics remain unaffected
  • Extremely cost-effective measurement chain, particularly due to the integrated bridge amplifier
  • Calibration is easy, owing to the HBK teach-in procedure

Extremely cost-effective; enables extremely large forces to be measured, even on a tight budget. No additional electronics are required. An optimal resolution is guaranteed due to the teach-in procedure.
